Computational Eddy-Current Probe Model for Composites, Metals and Semiconductors

  • Chapter
Review of Progress in Quantitative Nondestructive Evaluation

Abstract

A comprehensive computer code for research and design studies in electromagnetic NDE is now at an advanced stage of development. It has the capability of predicting the impedance characteristics of fully three-dimensional eddy-current probes in the presence of metals, semiconductors and advanced composites. By using a combination of the conjugate gradient method applied to a matrix and fast Fourier transform techniques, the resulting algorithm is both efficient in CPU time and has modest storage requirements. The theoretical model was presented in [1].
